Cruise and Theme Park Operational Updates due to Coronavirus

I suggest we avoid discussing ways to circumvent the mask policy. Discussing ways to get around Disney rules are against disboards policies.

More reason for shopdisney to hurry up and get us our Disney-themed masks ! Ordered the SW set, and was given 6/15 ship date

My post absolutely was not intended to circumvent mask policy but show how reasonable accommodations might be made for children who cannot wear masks due to disability. Sorry if it was misinterpreted. They are apparently common for children in Asia. They are full face shields.

In other news,

Have we discussed random people grilling hot dogs outside of Cookes of Dublin at DS yet? That seems like a fun guest behavior discussion point.

(that happened today, by the way)

Now I want a hot dog !

Pretty sure he’s referring to people talking about carrying a drink around at all times to avoid wearing a mask. Although I can’t remember which thread that was at this point .

No news on cancellations yet...but Disney did just send out a recipe for pie.

I responded to the email asking if someone can tell me if my reservation is cancelled or not yet. Told them I’ll even order the pie if someone can just say yes or no at this point.

almost all of them have a drink in their hands, there's no "stay here and drink" rule

Disney is in a bit of a different place then the other theme park’s presenting tomorrow, with both the NBA and MLS leagues are apparently working on a deal with Disney to finish out their seasons at WWoS/ESPN - that revenue buys Disney time that the other two parks do not have. As mentioned somewhere here or on one of the other rumors threads.. the idea for the leagues to be at WDW (or Vegas) is that they can provide a “bubble” for their personnel. With the parks open, does that safety net still exist.

Im not saying we would t get a date tomorrow as most are expecting - just that the date we do get in light of the sports involved may not be as soon as we like

This isn’t going to be additional revenue for Disney. This is so they can get some programming back on ESPN and ABC. The NBA playoffs especially have been a huge money maker for DIsney. The MLS and NBA playing at WWoS would be a move to limit losses. They won’t make as much money as other years because of reduced ad rates, but they will stop the some bleeding.

100% agree. Masks are just a feel good thing. The requirement to wear masks will be gone before the end of this year. Impossible for WDW to throw out paying customers left and right, being Facebook live video fed to thousands. If you are not comfortable going to WDW without a mask then don't go. Simple.

So science disagrees on the mask thingy. Guests who cannot comply with rules should stay home.

Shhhh, masks are a failure!

There’s people in every picture except the last, where people appear to be distanced, wearing masks lol.

Just sharing some views. I’m interested to see how things continue and the enforcement.

Let’s wear masks for a couple of months, get through this, and return to normal faster. Gotta be happy there is some compliance. I want this over sooner than later.

That's really all I want to see is how they enforce the rules.

Check in after 90 minutes... OH THERE’S 14 NEW PAGES TO READ.

Are squirrels stealing people’s hot dogs? I just can’t keep track... I assume the squirrels are at least wearing masks unless they are actively eating/drinking...

I think a lot of people (not you just the person that took the pics and many others) are just very eager to "find offenders and judge" I don't know. Let them enjoy their drinks, there was no one close to them other than their group

Same here - I just wonder if Disney is worried about strict enforcement and losing guests, given how much money they've lost since Covid-19 ?

I watched the live streams this morning from Cory Meets world and another from Resort Tv1 and I was looking for people to not be wearing masks - I didn’t see it.
Any instance I saw - they were walking with a snack and eating or drinking. Which by the way is ok to do according to the rules as DFB noted on their Instagram stories.
